This study pursues two related aims: (1) It develops a diachronic approach to web-based genres and explores its potentials and limitations. (2) As a case in point, it uses the genre personal weblog, providing a diachronic description of both recurrent and changing features of the genre. It applies a mixed-methods approach that draws on historical sources and the DIABLOC, a diachronic blog corpus, which spans 15 years from 1997 to 2012 and includes also examples of the very first weblogs. Analyses are selectively extended beyond the surface of blog-pages to their HTML source code. On the basis of corpus material, patterns of genre change such as migration, pattern embedding and genre split are described and embedded into a differentiated model of the development of the personal weblog genre.

BACKGROUND Computer-tailored programs have shown their efficacy to enhance lifestyle behaviours. Video-based messaging improves user evaluations but is expensive and may be replaced by animations. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to explore the effects of animation-based tailoring compared to video-based tailoring on the user-experience, using a modified case intervention: Support-to-Quit. METHODS A randomised controlled cross-over design was used with two periods (animation-based tailoring vs. video-based tailoring). A mixed-methods study was conducted using structured face-to-face interviews and digital questionnaires. The intervention Support-to-Quit was a web-based computer-tailored program to support smoking cessation. We recruited 58 participants (34.9% response rate) with 17 interviewees and 41 survey participations. RESULTS No significant differences in the scores between the video-based and the animation-based versions of the program were obtained (all p-values ≥ 0.14), indicating similar user-experience, and intention to use the program between the delivery modes. Small effect sizes favouring animated texts were found for loyalty and enjoyment. Interviews showed consistent findings, further revealing the specific perceptions surrounding the concepts of the user-experience model, and overall more positive feedback was given to the animated versions CONCLUSIONS This study showed that animation-based tailoring and video-based tailoring yield similar user-experience of smokers. Due to the overall similar user-experience and two trends favouring animated texts, one can argue that animation-based tailoring may be a better and cheaper option from an intervention development perspective. Yet, future studies with larger sample sizes are needed.

Seiring waktu, jumlah surat dalam sebuah perusahaan semakin hari makin banyak, sehingga muncul permasalahan dalam mengelolanya administrasi suarat, baik ketika dalam pencatatan surat maupun proses disposisi, serta pada saat pencarian arsip surat. Hampir sebagai besar surat yang ada di kantor-kantor masih disimpan dalam bentuk file-file yang masih bersifat manual, sehingga memungkinkan surat tersebut menunpuk, dan memerlukan waktu yang lama dalam pencarian dan pemrosesannya. Dengan dibangunnya  sistem manajemen pengarsipan bertujuan untuk mengatasi permasalahan-permasalahan tersebut di atas. Pemrograman  saat ini, baik desktop maupun web based, semakin marak  pengerjaannya menggunakan framework code igniter berbasis PHP. Framework CI memang dikembangkan untuk memudahkan dalam developing aplikasi dengan struktur  file source code-nya menggunakan pendekatan Models-Views-Controller (MVC) dan pemrograman berorientasi objek, oleh sebab itu penulis menggunakan CI dalam developing aplikasi ini. Aplikasi sistem manajemen surat dan pengarsipan ini dapat diakses dalam internal perusahaan web, yang bertujuan untuk memudahkan karyawan  dalam pengelolaan dan  mengaksesnya surat menyurat, selain itu aplikasi ini juga memberikan kemudahan dalam proses pencatatan surat,  disposisi, dan proses pencarian sehingga aplikasisi ini memiliki performa yang handal, mudah untuk di-maintenance dan dikembangkan lebih lanjut seiring perkembangan kebutuhan penggunanya.
